The question asks to resolve the paradox,
If unemployment rate decreases, the money spend to support must also decrease, but instead it has increased. so how?
What could resolve this paradox? decrease in unemployment at the same time increase in dollar to support it.. hope this helps. If not let me know. But the actual question is which doesnot resolve the paradox, note the "EXCEPT" at the end.
